Moelis & Company (NYSE: MC) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Firm's third quarter 2022 GAAP revenues were $233.5 million as compared with $490.8 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, the Firm’s third quarter revenues of $232.4 million decreased 55% from a record prior year period. The Firm reported third quarter 2022 GAAP net income of $25.6 million, or $0.37 per share (diluted). On an Adjusted basis, the Firm reported net income of $27.9 million or $0.37 per share (diluted) for the third quarter of 2022, which compares with net income of $134.8 million or $1.77 per share (diluted) in the prior year period.

GAAP revenues for the first nine months of 2022 were $778.1 million. Adjusted revenues for the first nine months of 2022 were $768.1 million and represented a decrease of 33% from a record prior year period. GAAP net income for the period was $130.3 million, or $1.86 per share (diluted), as compared with $266.2 million, or $3.94 per share (diluted), during the first nine months of 2021. On an Adjusted basis, the Firm reported net income of $144.2 million, or $1.89 per share (diluted), in the first nine months of 2022, as compared with $300.9 million, or $3.98 per share (diluted), in the prior year period. GAAP and Adjusted net income during the first nine months of 2022 include net tax benefits of approximately $0.13 per share related to the settlement of share based awards.

"We have always managed our Company with a long-term focus and commitment to growth, and this year we have continued to add world-class talent to our platform. Even though we expect turbulence in the short-term, looking over the horizon we have positioned the Firm for long-term success," said Ken Moelis, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

The Firm’s revenues and net income can fluctuate materially depending on the number, size and timing of completed transactions as well as other factors. Accordingly, financial results in any particular quarter may not be representative of future results over a longer period of time.

Currently 92% of the operating partnership (Moelis & Company Group LP) is owned by the corporate partner (Moelis & Company) and is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax. The remaining 8% is owned by other partners of Moelis & Company Group LP and is primarily subject to U.S. federal tax at the partner level (certain state and local and foreign income taxes are incurred at the company level). The Adjusted results included herein apply certain adjustments from our GAAP results, including the assumption that 100% of the Firm’s third quarter 2022 operating result was taxed at our corporate effective tax rate. We believe the Adjusted results, when presented together with comparable GAAP results, are useful to investors to compare our performance across periods and to better understand our operating results. A reconciliation between our GAAP results and our Adjusted results is presented in the Appendix to this press release.

Revenues

We earned GAAP revenues of $233.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, as compared with $490.8 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, we earned revenues of $232.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, as compared with a record $515.9 million in the third quarter of 2021, representing a decrease of 55%. The decrease was primarily driven by fewer transaction completions as compared to the third quarter of 2021. This compares with a 45%1 decrease in the number of global completed M&A transactions in the same period.

For the first nine months of 2022, we earned GAAP revenues of $778.1 million, as compared with $1,115.6 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, we earned revenues of $768.1 million in the first nine months of 2022, as compared with a record $1,140.7 million in the first nine months of 2021, or a decrease of 33%.

We continued to execute on our strategy of organic growth, adding six new Managing Directors since our last earnings release. These new senior additions focus on Healthcare, Industrial Technology, Private Funds Advisory, and M&A coverage in China. We continue to identify bankers who will excel on our global, collaborative platform and have a robust pipeline of Managing Director hires.

Total operating expenses on a GAAP basis were $198.5 million for the third quarter and $591.4 million for the first nine months of 2022. On an Adjusted basis, operating expenses were $198.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, as compared with $337.0 million in the prior year period, and $590.5 million for the first nine months of 2022 as compared with $771.1 million in the prior year period. The decrease in operating expenses for both current year periods was primarily associated with lower compensation and benefits expenses as a result of lower revenues earned, partially offset by an increase in non-compensation expenses in both current year periods.

Compensation and benefits expenses on a GAAP basis were $160.4 million in the third quarter and $477.2 million in the first nine months of 2022. Adjusted compensation and benefits expenses were $160.2 million in the third quarter of 2022 and $476.2 million for the first nine months of 2022. This compares with Adjusted compensation and benefits expenses of $306.0 million in the third quarter and $676.4 million in the first nine months of 2021. The decrease in Adjusted compensation and benefits expenses in both current year periods is attributable to a lower bonus expense accrual in 2022, associated with lower revenues earned as compared with the prior year period.

Non-compensation expenses on a GAAP and Adjusted basis were $38.0 million for the third quarter of 2022 as compared with $31.1 million for the prior year period. For the first nine months of 2022, GAAP and Adjusted non-compensation expenses were $114.3 million as compared with $94.7 million in the prior year period. The increase in non-compensation expenses is primarily attributed to increased client travel.

Other income (expenses) on a GAAP basis was $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2022, as compared with $30.4 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, other income for the third quarter of 2022 was $3.5 million, as compared with $3.0 million in the prior year period. In the third quarter of 2022, we recorded unrealized losses of $1.1 million from the mark-to-market impact on certain shares held. The economics of the $1.1 million in unrealized losses are included within Adjusted revenues. The adjustment did not impact our GAAP or Adjusted earnings per share.

For the first nine months of 2022, other income (expenses) on a GAAP basis was expense of $2.7 million as compared with income of $36.4 million in the prior year period. On an Adjusted basis, other income for the first nine months of 2022 was $6.5 million as compared with $8.9 million in the prior year period. For the first nine months of 2022, we recorded unrealized losses of $10.1 million from the mark-to-market impact on certain shares held. The economics of the $10.1 million in unrealized losses are included within Adjusted revenues and did not impact our GAAP or Adjusted earnings per share.

Further information regarding the adjustments made in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 can be found in the Appendix.

Provision for Income Taxes

The corporate partner (Moelis & Company) currently owns 92% of the operating partnership (Moelis & Company Group LP) and is subject to corporate U.S. federal and state income tax on its allocable share of earnings. The remaining 8% of income is subject to certain state, local and foreign income taxes (including New York City Unincorporated Business Tax), which is accounted for at the partner level through the non-controlling interests. For Adjusted purposes, we have assumed that 100% of the Firm’s third quarter 2022 operating result was taxed at our corporate effective tax rate of 25.9%, which includes a tax benefit of approximately $0.5 million related to the delivery of equity-based compensation at a price above the grant price. Without the tax benefit of equity-based compensation, our effective corporate tax rate is 27.1%.

Capital Management and Balance Sheet

Moelis & Company continues to maintain a strong financial position, and as of September 30, 2022, we held cash and liquid investments of $340.9 million and had no debt or goodwill on our balance sheet.

We remain committed to returning 100% of our excess capital to shareholders. The Board of Directors of Moelis & Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.60 per share. The $0.60 per share will be paid on December 2, 2022 to common stockholders of record on November 14, 2022. In addition, during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased 0.3 million shares of our common stock for a total cost of $13.5 million. During the first nine months of 2022, we repurchased approximately 3.2 million shares of our common stock for a total cost of $146.3 million.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements, which reflect the Firm’s current views with respect to, among other things, its operations and financial performance. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “target,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and estimates and subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe these factors include, but are not limited to, those described under "Risk Factors" discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, subsequent reports filed on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the SEC. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this release. In addition, new risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not rely upon forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. The Firm undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). From time to time, the Company may disclose certain “non-GAAP financial measures” in the course of its earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and otherwise. The Securities and Exchange Commission defines a “non-GAAP financial measure” as a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude, or include amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company are provided as additional information to analysts, investors and other stakeholders in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing our financial condition, operating results, or capital adequacy. Adjusted results are a non-GAAP financial measure which provide additional information on management’s view of operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Whenever we refer to a non-GAAP financial measure, we will also generally define it or present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference and such comparable GAAP financial measure.

The Company’s Adjusted revenues includes amounts reflected within other income (expenses) which are considered the equivalent of revenues for compensation. Such adjustments may include gains on founder investments where our employees and the Moelis advisory platform contributed meaningfully to the value creation; or the mark-to-market impact of equity instruments held by the Company that were originally received as payment for our banking services and included in revenues. We believe these adjustments are useful to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance and compensation levels.

The Company’s Adjusted compensation and benefits expenses may include adjustments reflected within other income (expenses) associated with compensation awards forfeited due to the enforcement of non-compete provisions. Management views the credits associated with such forfeitures as an offset to compensation and benefits expenses since the Firm will utilize the forfeited economics to recruit and or retain talent. We believe the netted presentation of forfeiture credits and compensation expenses are useful to allow comparability of period-to-period operating performance.

The Company’s Adjusted other income (expenses) may exclude amounts related to revenues and compensation and benefits expenses discussed above and adjustments to our provision for income taxes, which are discussed below.

The Company’s Adjusted provision (benefit) for income taxes is adjusted to illustrate the result as if 100% of the Firm’s income is being taxed at our corporate effective tax rates for the periods presented. Adjusted provision (benefit) for income taxes periodically includes the tax impact related to the settlement of share-based awards, the reclassification of TRA liability adjustments, or adjustments to our deferred tax assets and liabilities that occur in connection with new tax legislation. Such adjustments increase the comparability of our financial performance across reporting periods and versus our peers.

The Company’s Adjusted basic and diluted shares of Class A common stock outstanding is presented for each period as if all outstanding Class A partnership units have been exchanged into Class A common stock. The Adjusted presentation helps analysts, investors, and other stakeholders understand the effect of the Firm’s ownership structure on its results, including the impact of all the Firm’s income becoming subject to corporate-level tax.
